Nah I mean I love this but he’s not wrong - it’s about as subtle as getting smacked in the face with a cardboard cut out of Captain Picard and told to tune in on January 23 for more :lol:

I'm just at the end of Season 1 of The Greatest Generation, podcast, it hits a lot of nails on the head about S1 TNG. The finale of S1 is amazing as well, although there's some proper shite in the season overall. S3, 4 and 5 are the ones I enjoyed most I think.

Also to annoy Jenuall: Q-ting Bec, Canary Worf, Seven of Nine Sisters, Kahlesster Square, Siskovent Garden, Qa'plarchway :P

One of my favourite WTF moments from Season 1 of TNG is Episode 6. The Enterprise is transporting two alien delegations who hate each other, but their antics are basically a side plot that doesn't really play into the episode much. Then at the end of the episode, Tasha bursts into the transporter room while Riker and Picard are talking to inform them that they've discovered a pool of blood outside one of the delegations quarters and one of the delegates is missing. Riker tells Tasha to shut up because Picard has just got back, then Tasha informs him one of the ships cooks has been asked to cook something that looks like one of the delegates.

What is the response to this massive diplomatic crisis that will likely lead to a war engulfing an entire solar system? Picard declares he's going to bed and leaves Riker in charge, Riker looks at Troi, she just gives him a cheeky smile and a jaunty theme plays. The end.

Fun fact one of the delegates is played by Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac fame.

Under Archer's third amendment, you can't get to Morn-ington Crescent from Qa-plarchway, as it doesn't allow inverse tachyon jumps.

I really wish they'd do a show based in the Klingon empire, even if it was just a mini series.
